GREYS IN BOARDING
If you have been considering fostering, or know someone who is considering fostering, now would be a great time to jump in! If anyone can help, even temporarily, please contact Jennifer Vilches at jennifer@vilches.org. Greys waiting on foster homes at BARK! and Top Paw Resort are Sizzle and GQ.

FOSTER NEEDS
We are desperately needing fosters willing to look after broken leg foster dogs. We have two more incoming this week, Soprano and Clad! If you're thinking about fostering, but aren't ready to take on an injured greyhound, please consider fostering an already healed greyhound like Dutch or Damon so that their current foster home can take on another broken leg. If you have questions about fostering, please contact Jennifer Vilches at jennifer@vilches.org |

RAINBOW BRIDGE
There are no Bridge dogs that we know of this week!
